Thank you all. I am using the liquid 10% made for goats. I had googled it and said 3 ml per gallon of water. Guess that wasn’t accurate info.
Yes, the chicks are all in the same pen and on the ground. They are raised by mom. I will take the water out.
Can 2 and 4 week old chicks have safeguard goat dewormer? I noticed my older chickens have roundworms but the babies are in the same pen. I have already put it in their water but now I’m second guessing myself.
I was giving Poultry Cell and selenium and vitamin E paste. I used pyrantel to deworm just like I’d do a dog. One and then in two weeks.
They have been on a variety of feed but the pullet in question was always on DuMor 20% chick starter/grower. I’ve never had an issue with this feed and I...
Hi everyone,
I have been having a heck of a time with my chickens since this summer. I'll try to summarize the events and get to the last point which is the title of the post. If you don't want to read the lengthy details, skip to the last two paragraphs.
During the summer I got a group of...
Bringing back an old thread but I bought Hoover's easter eggers and olive eggers from Rural King about the same time as this thread was started. I got four of them at a discount for $1 each. I was so excited. I went to the store specifically for EE and they were on sale! I couldn't restrain...
I have been chickenless for quite a few years now. I went to visit my cousin this past week and saw the state he was keeping his birds in. He had two chicks in a guinea pig cage with a tarp halfway over it and a soaking wet towel in there. It has been raining for days straight! One of the chicks...
Dogs and cats can be spayed/neutered at either 8 weeks old or when they hit 2 pounds. Many vets like to wait until they are six months old. Personally, I'd get females done ASAP. I usually wait for male dogs to reach at least a year old. Just personal preference.
I made the mistake of putting my couple day old babies in with 2 week olds. Lots of pecking and biting. They ended up killing one of the little ones but it only took a day or so before they're pecking order was established.
My muscovy Elvis is the daddy. I'm having issues with my uploader so pics will be slow to come. But I'm so anxious I had to share right away. Last night two little boogers hatched. They look just like little mallard babies.
You can't tell but the two babies are under there. There were 7 eggs...
